Infra should be immutable piece that is certainly not influenced by someone power tripping or being butt-hurt by conflicting alignment on worldview issues. These things should be completely detached from each other, and infra should be neutral with technical guarantees it cannot be cut off aside of warfare acts.

Infrastructure can at least be content-politically neutral.

Demanding work isn't really an issue. Anyone can do that, and also reject the work. Dishonest actors on the other hand would take money for someone else's work.

You outlined what it (and all git hosting other services) are for: repository hosting, optionally issue tracker, mandatorily pull requests (for syncing with master or other branches), Actions for automated steps on merge to a tracked branch.

This should be clear as day to anyone - burning causes toxic fumes.

Very capable lora adapters are surfacing but it seems they are very niche.

If you don't mind, what are other low-effort but high signal forums other than HN, Perplexity and X for accurate news that skip the annoying part?

2005 - 2015'ish the DDR prices were artificially inflated by factory fires and such in asia. hope it's not going to repeat, need to have some excuse to drive the prices up..

Someone did a simple "Count 10 starting from 11" and it got stuck.

Scope creep is scary when you have the wrong pretext: to "just" implement a small feature or a project, when in reality the prerequisites to do so are enormous.

You're describing a tool. It can destroy your sanity yes, but it also enables sanity if that makes sense.

Sauna basically is the "hot winter" simulator.

Not the tapes, tar pit tar, the black thingy used in boats. And now that I read what's the translation it seems to be asphalt actually.

While it's true something like 90% of the accomodation have a sauna it's not like everything is planned around it. It's more like that it's the ONLY well soundproofed space, with nice atmosphere, that makes life enjoyable when your neighbors suck.

It's not a bug nor a vulnerability. It's a tool.
